Answer:

c. 7.14

Explanation:

The buffer solution is formed by a weak acid ( hypochlorous acid, HClO) and its conjugate base (hypochlorite ClO⁻, coming from sodium hypochlorite NaClO). We can calculate the pH using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.

pH = pKa + log [base]/[acid]

pH = -log 3.8 × 10⁻⁸ + log 0.111/0.211

pH = 7.14

What do agents such as chemicals, elevated temperatures, ionizing radiation, and viruses have in common?
Leni [432]

Answer:

All of them affect the DNA

Explanation:

Chemicals are compounds that can pass through cell membranes and modificate the DNA, elevated temperatures can denaturalize the cell and therefore damage the DNA, ionizing radiation can pass through cell organelles and reach the nucleus affecting the DNA, and viruses inject its DNA into the genome and modify it.

Will the calculated Molarity of NaOH be too high or too low or unaffected if the following happen: when you answer the question,
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The result will be affected.

The mass of KHP  weighed out was used to calculate the moles of KHP weighed out (moles = mass/molar mass).

Not all the sample is actually KHP if the KHP is a little moist, so when mass was used to determine the moles of KHP, a higher number of moles than what is actually present would be obtained (because some of that mass was not KHP but it was assumed to be so. Therefore, there is actually a less present number of moles than the certain number that was thought of.

During the titration, NaOH reacts in a 1:1 ratio with KHP. So it was determined that there was the same number of moles of NaOH was the volume used as there were KHP in the mass that was weighed out. Since there was an overestimation in the moles of KHP, then there also would be an overestimation in the number of moles of NaOH.

Thus, NaOH will appear at a higher concentration than it actually is.
